About the Author

Mark Andrew Ritchie grew up in the deep south, an Oregon coast logging town, and Afghanistan, where he traded for pigeons, kites, and glass string. He was one of four founding partners of CRT, a participant in Jack Schwager's bestselling, "New Market Wizards", and creator of the RR trading app. After raising 5 kids with his wife, she engaged him to follow her dream--working with orphans in Asia where he became immersed in barefoot banking. Today he is the Chairman of the Board of RTM2, a trading group, and lives outside Chicago.
